Amidst Johnny Depp’s ongoing defamation trial against his former wife Amber Heard, comedian Chris Rock has taken to roasting the Aquaman actress as part of his stand-up routines.
During a show in last week, the comedian told a London crowd, “Believe all women, believe all women…except Amber Heard.”
Rock then brought attention to the testimony of Depp’s former executive chauffeur and security guard, Starling Jenkins III, who on the 28th of April alleged in court that Heard had confessed to him that she had left a “surprise” – supposedly the actress’ own feces – on the Pirates of the Caribbean star’s side of their shared bed.
According to Jenkins III, Heard had disclosed to him in 2016, as he was driving her to that year’s Coachella music festival in Indio, California, that the act was a “horrible practical joke gone wrong”.
Alluding to this fairly unusual incident, Rock asked the audience, “What the f—k is she on? She s—t in his bed!
“She’s fine, but she’s not s—tting fine,” he asserted “She s—t in his bed. Once you s—t in someone’s bed, you just guilty of everything.”
Continuing, Rock further inquired, “What the f—k is going on there?” before surmising, “Wow. And they had a relationship after that. It must be amazing p—y. I’ve been with some crazy b—es but Goddammit!”
Supporting his former chauffeur’s testimony, Depp declared at the time, “I had gone to Mr. [security guard Sean] Bett and said, ‘She’s at Coachella. I think it’s a good time to go downtown so that I can get some of my things and get them out of there,’ especially things that were precious to me.”
“Then he showed me a photograph on his telephone of…it was a photograph of our bed, and on my side of the bed, was human fecal matter,” he added. “It was so outside. It was so bizarre and so grotesque that I could only laugh. So I did not go down there that day.”
Rock is one of the few comedians who has not conformed to the idea of political correctness, and jokes like the above one about Heard only solidify the fact that he has not lost his edge.
In March of this year, during this year’s ceremony for the insufferably woke Academy Awards, Rock made a fairly mellow joke about actor Will Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett-Smith, comparing her shaven-head appearance to Demi Moore’s similar look in the 1997 film G.I. Jane.
“Jada I love you, ‘G.I. Jane 2,’ can’t wait to see it,” said Rock, prompting a knee-jerk reaction from the actor who proceed to walk on stage and shamefully slap the comedian.
Touching upon the infamous slap at his recent London show, Rock jokingly updated, “I’m OK, if anybody was wondering. I got most of my hearing back.”
“People expect me to talk about the b——-, I’m not going to talk about it right now, I’ll get to it eventually. On Netflix,” he further joked. “Anyone who says ‘words hurt’ has never been punched in the face.”
Earlier this month, Rock even took some time to address the recent attack against fellow comedian Dave Chappelle, who was tackled on stage at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California, during one of his stand-up routines.
“Everyone’s a victim these days,” said the comedian. “There are real victims in the world, they deserve to be heard, they deserve our love and compassion. But if everybody claims to be a victim, then no one hears the real victims.”
Rock elaborated, “We say the world is addicted to opioids. No…the world is not addicted to opioids. The number one addiction in the world is attention.”
“One of the easiest ways to get attention is to be infamous, to try to stab Dave Chappelle on stage, or you can be a victim,” he concluded.
